UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TEoMAs eooDALL, oE SANFORD,MArNE` IMPROVEMENT IN PASTING-MACHINES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 186,339, dated January 16, 1877; application iled September 8, 1876.

To all whom it may concern:

/Be it known that I, THoMAs-GooDALL, of

. Sanford, in the county of York and State of Maine, have Ainvented certain new and useful Improvements in Fasting-Machines; and I do hereby declare `that the following is a full,' clear, and exact description thereof, which a machine for applying paste to nap or plush goods of the dierent kinds. Certain kinds of plushand other woolen goods are made by having applied ,to them on the back side a paste the purpose of which is to prevent the nap or plush from pulling out. Certain kinds of these goods would `be spoiled if the paste -were allowed to get onto the face.

My invention consists in a machine by which the paste is applied to the -back sideof the goods evenly, and over the whole surface of that side, and is prevented from coming in contact with the face.

` In the accompanying drawings, A shows the frame of the machine. d is a paste-v receptacle. b is a stirrer to keep the paste in a proper condition in the receptacle.V This device isoperated by the pin c on the roll d, together with the spring' e. The stirrer is pivoted on the supports f, upon which it turns when moved Vby the pin and spring before described. g is the past-ingfroll, which in its rotation takes up from the receptacle a thepaste which is carried and applied to the goods by the said roll. The roll d is a pressure and feed roll to carry the goods over the pasting-roll g. To this roll d the face of the goods is exposed, and consequently no liability is incurred of soiling-the face of the goods with paste. h is a duplex spring pressing upon the caps t', which caps bear upon the journals of the roll d, and-thus maintain through it the required pressure upon the pasting-roll and the goods. jis a supplemental roll to carry forward the cloth after it has passed between the rolls d and g, and to prevent the same from coming in contact with the paste in the receptacle a. K is another roll, over which the cloth isv carried, and over which it passes to remove it from the machine.

The method of driving the different rolls is as follows: d is caused to rotate by friction of or contact with the fabric. Upon the journal of the roll g are rigidly set two pulleys, lm. From thevpulley Z extends a belt to the pulley n, in order to impart rotation to the roll la From the pulley m a band extends to the pulley o, which causes the rotation of the supplemental roll j.

Power is applied on the pulley p.

rlhe forward edge of the paste-receptacle is scored with a series of diverging grooves, q, the purpose of whichis to keep the goods even and properly spread as they enter between the rolls d and g.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is-

' The pasting-machine herein described, made up of the combination ofthe receptacle a, pasting-roll g, roll d, spring h, caps t', stirrer b, pin c, spring e, supports f, rolls j and It, as herein set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

' THOS. GOODALL. Witnesses:
